10 the EEior Of the HralF:


ALLOW me to express appreciation
of the excellent editorial on the sub
ject of Education, in your issue of
the 18th inst Permit me to add n
suggestion in relation 10 the prevail
ing custom in many schools of ask
ing the scholars if they have whis-
pered or broken the rules of the
school. An honest scholar will ac-
knowledge if in fault, and by so do
ing be marked adversely; while a
dishonest scholar will not usually
confess when in fault, and for this,
his own untruthful report, may be
marked Correct" Thus discount
is put on honest confession, and a
premium on false statements. The
word Education means from e and
duco) to lead ont. 1t is therefore
in this respect, in the first instance,
leading the young to experience that
honesty is not the way to get the
correct mark in school, and in the
other that of encouraging a PERM
cious. spirit OF lying, to have the
mark correct to which they are not
entitled. Such course is destruc-
tive to the tender conscience of the
young, and contrary to all ethics.

AN INTERESTING DECISION.
Bincklistilg WOPkmeH Ia n COnSpfr
acy Second Only to the Crime of
Murder


In the City Court at New Haven,
Conn, on Saturday morning, Judge
Pickett rendered his decision in the
cases of William H. Wallace, Assist
ant Superintendent of the New York,
New Haven and Hartford Railroad,
and Stacy B. Opdyke, Superintend-
cnt of New Haven and Northampton
Railroad, accused of conspiracy by
Thomas f. Meany, who charged
them with blacklisting him. The
accused were fined $50 each, and
the bonds on the appeal were fixed
at 5000.
The Judge in his decision said he
was clearly of opinion that conspira-
cies designed to hinder any man
from putting his labor on the market
when, where and for such compen-
sation as he may agree for, is equally
criminal with any conspiracy de.
signed to hinder the sale of the mer-
chandise of any producer or dealer,
and is more disastrous in effect than
any other form Of conspiracy, ex-
cept that to take life. Every mans
labor is his own property, and is the
all of majority of men, and with
his skill and industry are precious
to him, next to his life. His man.

comfort of him and his are depend.
ent upon his right to exercise his
powers and qualities with freedom;
and any hindrance in the lawful ex-
ercise of such freedom, whether by
employees seeking self-protection, or
employers intending to be courteous
to each other is in violation of rights
established by the Constitution Of
the State. To convict of such con
spiracY circumstantial evidence is
competent, and may be conclusive
1t is sufficient If it is shown that the
parties had mutual understanding
to the common design and the part
each was to perform In the attain
ment thereof. The Court finds that
the complainant left the employ oil
one Of the accused in proper man
ner, but not with the approval Of
that employer; that he afterwarc
obtained employment of the othe
of the accused and was subsequently,
discharged by the latter, not because
of incompetence, but because, in tn,
opinion OF Mr.. Opdyke, he had lef
the latter's employ in ga mean way,
which opinion had been indirectl,
communicated to Mr.. Wallace. Til,
Court is satisfied that Wallace anc
Opdyke had a mutual understanding

MASKED TRAIN ROBBERS.
Daring Crime On the Pan.HaMdle
Road Near PittsburV.

PITTsBURG, Jan. H. - Five masked robbers
boarded a Panhandle freight train near Sheridan
station Just the outskirts OF the city last night,
but they were detected in the act of throwing
freight from the moving train, and in a desperate
fight which ensued, Fireman Curley was shot
through the right thigh and a brakeman was
knocked senseleSs with stone. The trainmen
then gave up the tight 70 attend 10
the injured men, and the thieves escaped.
The train was loaded with merchandise
and express matter. and when nearing Sheridan
tunnel the engineer noticed that his train was
dragging. Upon investigation it was found that
the brakes had been set on three cars The train
was stopped, and the robbers, surmlsng what Was
up, jumped from the cars hand-uo-hand strug-
gle followed, but the robbers soon gave
up the fight and started 10 run. Fire
man Curley and a brakeman gave chase,
and were fast running their game down, when the
pursued turned upon their pursuers, ana while one
shot Curley, the other Knocked the brakeman
senseless with stone. The injured men were car
ried back 10 the train and their wounds dressed.
Curley bled profusely, but was not fatally
wounded. Guns, ammunition, etc, which the
thieves had thrown from the cars, were found
nearly mile back from the point where the rob-
berry was discovered. IL is supposed that tho
brakes were set by the thieves to prevent fast run
ming while they were engaged in distributing their
plunder along the line OF the road.

A Charge That the Railroads Are Try.
ing 10 Make Gov. Ireland Senator.
AUSTIN, TEXAS, Jan. 15.-The senatorial contest
grows hotter daily. A local paper, charging that
certain leading railroad men are actively engaged
in working for Gov. Ireland, quotes the language
OF Pool Commissioner Waldo. I'm a letter to a legis-
latOr, as follows: 81 will consider 1t q personal
obligation to myself If you will vote for Ireland
for the Senate"
The governor, upon being interviewed on his
alleged opposition TO the interstate commerce bill
for the purpose OF securing the railroad influence
in the contest for the Senatorship, said:
81 have this to say. The person who tortures
the language Of my message into evidence Of my
hostility TO federal legislation on Interstate COM
meIce is either anxious TO miSrepreSent or is In
capable OF understanding the most ordinary ideas
expressed in print, and the man who assumed
that the federal government has the right TO enter
states and take control OF roads within their bOr
derS is in no better condition than the first. /

reference TO interstate commerce. presume that
occupy the same position on state regulation OF
railways that senator MaXey, Judge Reagan and
Others do" AS to the support OF railroad men in
his candidacy he emphatically denied any cOali-
tiOn, but did not think that any candidate for the
Senate would spurn the aid OF even railroad men.
On the tariff question the governor said he had
expressed himself thousand times to the effect
''that the tariff laws passed in 1862 to raise war
funds and slightly modified in 1867 are now mOn-
stroSitieS and should be repealed"
